A SPECIAL from Washington says :
Public attention is now concentrated
upon the national drill which is to
take place in this city next month.
The color line crisis has been safely
passed, the movement towards this
reorganization Of the local militia,
putting the companies in a position to
compete for Che prizes goes bristly
forward, the month of the drill is
nearly here, the securing of hotel ac-
Communications has begun, and many
other indications point to the fact that
the great assemblage Of the republics
militia and of all who delight in the
military, will Don be here. Wash
mgton, fresh and charming in her
new spring suit of green, will gladly
welcome the thousands Of visitors who
will flock to her reception IN May, and
aside from all interest in drill it is
worth a trip of any distance to see
the most beautiful city of America
10 her best attire.

THK LOUISE HOME.

THE LOUISE HOME.
The Corcoran art gallery he began for his
own pleasure, but afterward turned it over
to tho government. During the war he left
Washington and this gallery was used by the
government for the quartermaster's depart
ment. Corcoran's real estate investments in
Washington nave added greatly to his
wealth, and in the present advancing state of
Washington property he is growing richer
every day than interest alone could possibly
make him. He owns the Arlington hotel
property and lots and lands throughout every
quarter of the city. Just how much he is
worth no one knows, but it is supposed that
his possessions will run somewhere from
5000, 900 to $4,000, 900. If he lives to be
100 he ought to be worth S2o,000,000 and, as
he takes remarkably good care of himself.
there Is no reason why he should not reach
the age Of Sir Moses Montefiore.
Gen. I.ogan's death continues to be one Of
thet topics Of" Washington conversations and
there is no doubt but that Washington So
ciety loses a great deal by it, Not SO much
in the general himself, for there was but little
Of the social animal about him. He did not
shine at receptions, and he was often moody
at his own home. But Mrs. Logan smoothed
it all over. She stood to him as Dolly Mad
ison did to the president in the days of sixty
and more years ago. Her house was the So
cial center of a Republican circle, aud it YVES
her presence that lighted up the boarding
house where she lived before she opened Cal
umet place. For some time at least she will
not bs in Washington society. She will
hardly stand here in the same position as she
did during the generals life, and though she
may, like Dolly Madison, hold a court of her
own in the years to come, she will never be
tho same as when she was playing the game
in which the stakes were the presidency and
the cards were men, The great incentive for
her to attain social popularity, namely, the
success Of her husband, is gone. doubt
whether she will care much to go into society
in the future, and she has beel, so closely
wrapped up i'll Gen. Logan that life will DO

wears away and she comes tn realize that the
half Of her soul is indeed gone.

The Correct Positt on for Boxing


When standing up for a turn with the
gloves, look your man full in the eye, don't
lose his gaze for an instant, for it is the in
falible mirror which will inform you of what
his brain is evolving before his limbs have
had time to execute it. Remember always
that in general the left hand is the weapon
of assault, the right being held for the ppr-
pose Of defense. OF course this remark does
not imply that you are not to let drive with
your left n rightin rapid succession, which
is often done when opportunity offers.
Advance your left foot forward, therefore,
planting it flat and firmly on tine ground.
The right foot should be from ten to four
teen inches in the rear of the left.
Let the fists be lightly closed when you
are sparring round, but tighten them stimuli
taneously with the delivery of a blow or
when warding off your adversary. This
seems perhaps a slight point to strike for,
but q very short experience will show its
wisdom and Importance when put into prac-
tice.
Let the head be, If anything, inclined a
trife to the right, and do not protrude the
chin. Although both eyes should look
straight into those of your opponent, the left
check should be slightly turned toward linn,
in order to prevent a plump blow between
the eyes taking equally bad effect on both.
Charles E. Clay in Outing.
